irony, geniality, and malice as solvents of enthusiasm, virtue, and elevation

Spanking the plank

Since Garageband for the IPAD swam into my consciousness last year (Icons passim), it has been upgraded and extended to the iPhone (and iPod Touch for that matter).

I plugged my guitar into the phone yesterday afternoon (via the trusty Apogee Jam) and had a little noodle around. For all that it seems ridiculous to be cranking out blues riffs into such a small device, it really is a joy to use. It is going to make practicing so much easier that I will have to develop a whole new range of excuses for why I don't do it enough.
